About Vietnam

Vietnam is one of the most popular beach destinations for Russian travellers. Warm South China Sea waters, white-sand beaches, distinctive cuisine and accessible prices make it a natural choice for a winter holiday.

Nha Trang is Vietnam's flagship resort, with a developed infrastructure, kilometres of beach and dozens of spa centres. Phu Quoc is a tropical island of secluded coves and pearl farms. Da Nang draws visitors with world-class beaches and the proximity of ancient Hoi An.

Vietnam is more than its beaches. Ha Long Bay with its thousands of limestone islands is one of the New Seven Wonders of Nature. The ancient temples of Hue, the rice terraces of Sapa, the floating markets of the Mekong Delta — every region offers something distinctive.

AMIST runs charter flights to Vietnam from the Russian Far East. Direct flights, transfers, vetted hotels and Russian-speaking guides — we handle the full organisation so you can focus on the holiday.

Fascinating facts about Vietnam

12 surprising facts about the land of the dragon

01

Ha Long Bay — a natural wonder

Ha Long Bay has more than 1,600 islands and rock formations rising from emerald water. Legend says they were created by a giant dragon

02

A coffee-growing nation

Vietnam is the world's second-largest coffee producer after Brazil. The famous Vietnamese coffee with condensed milk has become one of the country's signatures

03

Pho — the national dish

Pho is eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Every region has its own recipe — from Hanoi's pho bo to Ho Chi Minh's pho served with mountains of fresh herbs

04

100 million inhabitants

Vietnam is the world's 15th most populous country. 70% of its population is under 35 — one of the youngest nations in Asia

05

Ancient Hoi An

Hoi An is an open-air museum of 15th-to-19th-century architecture. Every evening its streets are lit by thousands of paper lanterns

06

Son Doong Cave

Vietnam is home to the world's largest cave — Son Doong. Its volume is so vast that a 40-storey skyscraper would fit inside

07

The capital of motorbikes

Ho Chi Minh has more than 7 million registered motorbikes — the city is known as the motorbike capital of the world. Crossing the street here is an adventure of its own

08

The floating markets of the Mekong

In the Mekong Delta, trade happens directly from boats. Sellers hang their goods from long poles so buyers can see what's on offer from a distance

09

Phu Quoc — the pearl island

Phu Quoc is home to Vietnam's largest pearl farms. The full process can be observed here — from oyster to finished jewellery

10

Cu Chi Tunnels

The Cu Chi tunnel network beneath Ho Chi Minh stretches for 250 km. During wartime, thousands of guerrillas lived and fought in its passages

11

The rice terraces of Sapa

The rice terraces of northern Vietnam are among the most beautiful in the world. The Hmong hill peoples have shaped them over centuries

12

A country on two wheels

The best way to see Vietnam is to ride a motorbike along the coast from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh. The route takes 2–3 weeks and covers 1,800 km

Impressions of Vietnam

★★★★★

We flew the AMIST charter to Nha Trang — convenient and good value. Hotel right on the beach, fifty metres to the water. The kids swam every day while my husband and I went for massages. A perfect winter break.

Natalya P. "Nha Trang — Beach Holiday" tour, February
★★★★★

Phu Quoc is paradise. Quiet beaches, superb seafood for very little money, sunsets to remember. Thank you AMIST for the hotel choice — we landed in the quietest corner of the island.

Mikhail and Anna D. "Phu Quoc — A Tropical Paradise" tour, January
★★★★★

We travelled the length of Vietnam from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh. Ha Long Bay was incredibly beautiful, Hoi An with its lanterns felt like a fairytale, and Vietnamese cuisine deserves a separate review of its own. Highly recommend the "All of Vietnam" tour!

Sergey K. "All of Vietnam" tour, November
★★★★★

The mud baths in Nha Trang are wonderful. Skin like silk afterwards. The massages were excellent too. A great choice if you want to relax and look after yourself.

Irina Sh. "Nha Trang — Spa & Wellness" tour, March
★★★★★

We saw the New Year in on the beach in Nha Trang — unforgettable. Fireworks over the sea, a warm breeze, a cocktail in hand. Minus 30 back home, plus 28 here. AMIST organised everything perfectly.
